question for obs.
I would say they're pretty much miai. My inclination is that the right side is better as the invasion is easier and the top right corner is weaker. On the other hand, the left-side move is bigger in terms of territory/framework. I would just play on the right and spend my time ...

Re: magicwand versus drmwc
Using whatever the shortcut is for your browser/os to open a new tab with a 'shift' key thrown in is often the keyboard shortcut for reopening a previously (mistakenly) closed tab. (ctrl-shift-t for windows I think).

Re: Voices in my head
A friend of mine was much better at reading than me and I asked him how he did it.
He said he just stares blankly at the board until one the intersections starts to glow faintly.
Then he plays.

Just being annoying and pedantic but Blokus is perfect information (IIRC).

Uberdude had just managed to pick up the pace a little and magicwand goes and does that ...

Re: magicwand versus drmwc
Should be an interesting game. Good luck both.
Re: Focus
I just had a look at habitRPG.
The first thing I did after learning to program was make a GoRPG program that let you level up Strength (Tsumego), Dexterity (Blitz games), Endurance (Slow Games), Wisdom (Pro games) and maybe others I forget. You would enter any go playing/study you'd done and it ...

I have the same problem.
I have the same problem wonderful condition. I used to think it was a bad thing back when I was ambitious about my hobbies. At the moment I'm barely playing any go. It doesn't matter. I'm not trying to be the best player, not even the best player in the country... I don't ...

Re: My first under the stone in a game
I didn't see it till move 123 when Uberdude had conditional-moved me so I figured I was dead (and not alive as I had previously hoped) and should read it out. It would have been too mean to resign at that point. I probably wouldn't have stopped to look for it if he didn't conditional-move me though ...

So pessimistic. I predict we won't lose a stone until MagicWand plays his fourth move.

Re: Lifein19x19 as a player (Legion game)
Eh, I imagined people would just use hide tags in voting thread.
This way you don't look down a long list of stronger players saying R9 when you go to vote for D6 (because, although you have seen their arguments, you think it surely is more important to limit the moyo) and change your mind or not ...

Re: Lifein19x19 as a player
It's hard to hide the votes.
I thought I'd raise the idea and I think I'd slightly prefer it. I can see it being more hassle than good though.
Just imagine someone like MagicWand adding a diagram about the expected future. Even if he does it every several moves it would surely raise the ...

Re: Lifein19x19 as a player
Maybe it makes sense for votes to be hidden. It probably doesn't change much but it might help encourage discussion.
How strong a player will the opponent be? It's very hard to judge how strong the collective will be. Maybe a stone or two weaker than the average rank of the most active ...
